Does anyone know of a (commercial?) operation within 120 driving miles of NYC that flies a 2-32? I need some time in one over the next 4 weeks. thanks! --bob

Yards Creek Soaring....Blairstown....about 60 miles....


I think they use it for rides, not for lessons...but maybe Jim will work with you on your needs...

Generally used for rides, but probably a way to work out some dual.

Unfortunately, yard creek won't do anything but rides in the 2-32


Any other suggestions? --Bob

Curious why you need time in the 2-32?

Cheers,

You may have to just make a trip elsewhere. If you plan it right
airfare isn't too bad, and a lot of places have a bunkhouse so you
could spend the weekend. I know Chilhowee soaring offers dual time
in their 2-32. I'm sure there's others around too.

Typically solo rental isn't available for these beasts.
That was the case with Schweizer School years ago -- they'd sign you
off for PIC in the thing, but wouldn't let you fly alone in order to
keep the CG forward.

It is a little far but Hollister Soaring Center in Hollister, CA only uses 2-32's for their primary training.

unfortunately Chilhowee is closed due to runway work. I have flown the 2-32 in Hollister, but its a little far
